(TVU) – Nineteen lecturers from Tra Vinh University take part in the Examination Council (one Vice Chairman and eighteen examiners) of the 2023–2024 Science and Technology Competition for High School Students of Tra Vinh Province from January 23 to 29, 2024.
This is the 12th time the competition has been held. It has been widely introduced to high schools by the Provincial Departments of Education and Training. As scheduled, the Departments of Education and Training of all the provinces – including Tra Vinh – organize the provincial competition at the end of January 2024 in order to find the top projects to compete at the national level.
The final round of the competition, which takes place from March 23 to 27, draws 188 projects from middle and high school students in Tra Vinh. The projects submitted to the province-level competition cover a wide range of subjects and fields, such as Social and Behavioural Sciences, Biochemistry, Biomedicine and Health Sciences, Materials Sciences (particularly renewable materials), Environmental Engineering, Robotics and Intelligent Machines, System Software, and Embedded Systems, etc.

The majority of the projects, in the examiners’ opinion, show high applicability and the enthusiasm and capacity of high school students for scientific research. This is an excellent foundation for further in-depth studies in the future, provided they are guided and assisted appropriately from high school onward.
